Life's WORC continues to be an extraordinary example of what is possible when funders, families, staff and the individuals we support commit to a common vision of what can be achieved. As the agency has grown over the last thirty-eight years, it has done more than change its original name. It has also responded to the changing environment and the demands of the marketplace.
We at Life's WORC consider ourselves to be the very best at what we do. We take great pride in ensuring that the people we support receive every opportunity to live a full and enviable life. This commitment is deeply ingrained in the culture of Life's WORC and is evidenced by our extraordinary audit and survey results.

Our core values define our beliefs and are the building blocks which determine our organizational behavior. The grass roots genesis of these values is reconfirmed by rigorous annual evaluations to insure that the agency continues on the right path . It is axiomatic to think that one is the best but more challenging to measure real performance and respond to results when there are gaps in the congruence of perception. It is this rigorous self evaluation that has enabled Lifes WORC to capture two extremely prized awards of excellence-Best Company to work for in NY State by the Society for Human Resource Management and Best Company to Work for in NY City By Crains Business Week.
Sincerely,
"Choice" at Life's WORC is not a wall adornment but an underlying philosophy of how we operationalize our mission. Our Person Centered approach guides the interactions we have with the people we support. This philosophy affords the individuals in our homes and programs a voice in their lives. It gives them a choice in their day-to-day decision making.
Our goal is to continue to improve the lives of the people we support as well as the wonderful staff who support them. In order to accomplish this goal we need to be the best we can be, both for the staff and the people we support. This collaborative effort will continue to provide the synergy to ensure that Lifes WORCs potential is fully realized.
